In A Storm Of Scandal
192 pages
A tempestuous second-chance romance that traps past heartbreak and undeniable passion together in a storm-swept castle.
What it feels like
Reading this romance feels like being caught in the very tempest it describes—urgent, atmospheric, and impossible to escape. The narrative thrives on the claustrophobic thrill of forced proximity, locking the reader inside a sprawling, storm-battered castle where old wounds and undeniable chemistry collide. It balances the intimate, crackling tension of two estranged lovers trapped together with the looming, high-stakes dread of the outside world waiting to crash back in. The prose is emotionally charged, leaning heavily into the breathless push-and-pull of duty versus desire. It is a brisk, dramatic read perfectly suited for those who devour second-chance love stories where aristocratic duty complicates matters of the heart, and where the weather outside perfectly mirrors the raging passions within.

About the book
Poppy lost her heart—and her reputation—to the dangerously suave Luca Ranieri. Only to be crushed by a whirlwind of scandal when aristocratic Luca chose duty over desire.
Now Poppy finds herself stranded in her grandmother's castle by a violent storm—captive with none other than the deliciously disheveled Luca.
For three days, the tempest rages, and Poppy loses her heart to Luca all over again. But with reality comes the media frenzy. And this time, the price of scandal means Luca can't just walk away
